First their xapk file contains the original app apk (as well the 
original sub apks required by that apk).

Second you can install without any app:
https://www.quora.com/How-can-I-install-Xapk-files-on-an-Android

"
     Method 2: Download .XAPK file using File Manager:

         Download the .XAPK file on your Android device.
         Open file manager and discover the .XAPK file. Rename the 
extension to .zip format.
         Extract the .zip file.
         Now, find the .obb file (usually named as “com.xxxxx.obb”) 
within the file and copy it into the location: 
/sdcard/storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/.
         Lastly, install the .apk file. Within a few minutes, you would 
be able to run the file successfully
